Yesterday my dad, myself, Chris, Rebekah, Isaiah and Noelle had an incredible life changing experience handing out the new movie done by Living Water Publications (Ray Comfort) called 180. If you haven't heard about (or seen) this movie you MUST!! It is on Youtube and its only about 33 minutes long so get to watching it and share it with ALL your family, friends, and whoever else! The movie compares the World War II holocaust of Adolf Hitler to America's modern day holocaust of abortion. More than a life changing day for us, our prayer is that it was life changing for the college students AND faculty of University of Southern Maine as we spent several hours handed out FREE DVD's. This date had been kept quiet until well, yesterday, and all across the country God-fearing, children-loving Christians stormed the gates of indoctrination (AKA college campuses) to pass out the DVD's. Here are the pictures from yesterday...

Here is the chaplain talking with my dad telling us we needed a table and a permit

*clears throat* a C-H-A-P-L-A-I-N!! Yes, we ended up having to leave the school, but we had passed out all but 31 of the DVD's that we had for that campus by the time we were asked to leave! Praise God!!

Mr Hubbard talking with a student.

Some of the team gathered seeing how everyone is doing with handing DVD's out...

My friend Elizabeth passes out a couple of DVD's to these students...

Mr. Hubbard had a couple of very interesting conversations and this one was very interesting but Mr Hubbard did a great job defending the TRUE faith.

Though it is very uncharacteristic of me to do just thought posts on this blog, I have been thinking alot about some things lately and decided that I needed to write this post. So this post is more for me than anything and my prayer is that it may help someone else along the way...

Dear Olivia,

Has it really been a month since you went to be with Jesus? It seems like just last week we heard and rejoiced with your family when they found out they were expecting you. And wasn't it just yesterday at the rest stop that Cloe and Audrey ran over to me with proud smiles across their faces saying, "It's a girl!! It's a girl!! Her name is Olivia Hope!!" But then I am brought back to reality that it wasn't just last week or yesterday and that now you are smiling down on us and dancing on streets of gold. Even though I never met you, you had already stolen my heart and I couldn't wait to see your face and your beautiful curly hair. I wondered what you would look like, what personality you would have, and what your favorite things to do would be. I could already see you playing on Sunday afternoons with all the kids. You were the 3rd baby to be born in a one year span at our little church.

And even though you never met you mom and dad, I can't even begin to tell you how much they love you. Every time when I was at your house I heard them pray for you and your little soul. And your big sisters adored you already and talked all the time about you! You would not of had to worry about being protected because you would have had the best big brothers! They also couldn't wait for your arrival and Joel couldn't wait to be a big brother for the first time! Even though you never experienced any human experiences, you were spared the trials of this life and went on before us to be with our Savior. Olivia, you will always be loved, treasured, and remembered and I know you will be the first to welcome your family into heaven after the Lord welcomes them saying, "Well done my good and faithful servant, enter into your rest.". Even though we miss you terribly, I know that God had greater plans for your little life. I love you Olivia!
